Abstract
In Versatile Video Coding (VVC), local affine motion compensation (LAMC) is adopted to handle complex motions, such as rotation and zooming. However, it is inefficient to use LAMC to handle the global motion due to the following two reasons. First, the use of LAMC may lead to some extra bit cost on the affine motion model parameters. Second, the precision of LAMC is restricted by the MV precision of the control points. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a global homography motion compensation (GHMC) framework to better characterize the global motion. For each coding block, an extra mode is added to perform motion compensation based on an 8-parameter global homography motion model. In addition, an extrapolation scheme is designed to derive the parameters from reference frames to save the bit cost for signaling them. The proposed framework is implemented into the VVC reference software VTM-6.0. Experimental results show that, on average, 0.69% and 0.66% BD-rate reduction is achieved under Low Delay P and Low Delay B configurations, respectively, for sequences with rich complex global motions.
